The Gin Blossoms recently donated two basses and a guitar for the "I Am AZ Music: MIM Celebrates 100 Years of Arizona Music" exhibit at the Musical Instrument Museum (http://themim.org) in Phoenix, AZ. The exhibit runs from Feb. 18, 2012 - Jan. 6, 2013.
Scott recently attended a press conference at MIM and had this to say:
"To be in the company of so many brilliant instruments and artifacts is a stunning honor. I encourage everyone to take this tour whenever you are in the area. If you're afar, it's well worth the
journey. This is an amazing museum and a must for everyone!"
If you're in the PHX area, be sure to visit the exhibit at the Musical Instrument Museum!

On Nov. 16 (7PM), Jesse will be joined by three area singer/songwriters for Songwriters' Showcase VI at Tempe Center for the Arts
http://www.tempe.gov/tca/Showcase.htm
Tickets
$10 at door or by phone
$12 online (go on sale 9/1 10 AM thru TCA box office)
A limited number of tickets for a VIP “meet and greet” with the artist are available.
From Jesse:
"As a proud Arizonian, performing in Tempe will always be really exciting for me. Sharing songs in my hometown and telling the stories behind them is a blast. Songwriter showcases give me a chance to meet, network and co-write with established writers and some amazing up and comers. You can't beat that kind of fun while making a living."

PLEASE TAKE NOTE this show has been canceled - 9/10: Indian Ledge Park - Trumbull, CT
Unfortunately the Indiana Ledge Park show (with Lifehouse & Sugar Ray) has been canceled due to hurricane damage. And to those that were affected by Hurricane Irene, our thoughts & prayers are with you and wishing you all a speedy recovery.

"On July 29, 2011, the ®Fender Music Foundation visited the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, just down the road from its offices, and auctioned off two guitars signed by the band. We also got words from Robin and Jesse about their youth the importance of music education in schools."
